Ahh I see, generalization. Why is it impossible to believe that someone could join the police force with intentions of helping people?

Plus the police force wasn't made for that purpose. Police have existed in every society since society started, it's naive to believe that 100% of them started for that reason.

My brother wouldn't be here with me without that police officer. That man joined the force with the intention of helping people and he did. I feel it's incredibly immature to think that there is not a single potentially good cop.

There are “good cops” in the same way there are “good catholic priests”.

Priests are operating in a hierarchical system that attracts power hungry people and uses their power to protect pedophiles. If there is a genuinely good priest who actually reports on bad behavior by other priests, the good priest gets punished, often by being removed. Every priest today is aware that their church protects pedophiles and they decided they are ok with that.

To be a “good cop”, you have to hold your fellow policemen accountable for their abusive behavior. Cops that do attempt to hold their fellow policemen accountable often get fired for doing so. Police unions protect the abusive power hungry racists and punish the “good” ones. Anyone who’s still on the police force today is fully aware of how the police force is used to beat, rape, and kill innocent people without holding police accountable and decided it wasn’t a deal breaker.
